Is a vegan's efforts at advocacy worth more than a vegetarian's or even a meat eater's if they happen to agree on the same issue? If a meat eater eats meat, but hates the factory farm system or animal experimentation, do we discount anything we can get out of them because they are not "pure."

As I've written previously, I never pushed him to go vegan, and now that he is I don't push him to do any vegan education. It's amazing to observe as someone learns about what we humans have done to this planet in such a short period of time, and how dire the situation really is. But that's me.

The only cool thing is that Gene Bauer's views on the meat industry are so similar to those expressed on this blog a few weeks ago.
